We're still reflecting on the great time our team had participating in the Verona Hometown Days Parade last week.

At Heartland Credit Union, we believe being a community partner means showing up, getting involved, and celebrating alongside the people we serve. We were proud to be part of this longstanding Verona tradition and connect with so many community members along the route.

Thank you, Verona, for another wonderful Hometown Days celebration!

In addition to the start of June Dairy Month, it is also World Milk Day! 🥛

Today is the perfect day to celebrate one of nature’s most perfect foods. There are 13 essential nutrients found in one glass of milk, including calcium, protein, Vitamin A, potassium, and many more! Dairy foods like milk provide a unique nutrient profile that helps people of all ages achieve greater health and wellness. I am thankful to enjoy milk and other delicious dairy products daily that fuel my travels as Alice in Dairyland and help me share dairy goodness near and far! 🤍

High-quality milk all starts with the high-quality care that Wisconsin dairy farmers provide to their cows, land, and their communities. Today, be sure to give a milk “cheers” to our dedicated farmers and their devotion to America’s Dairyland! 🐄✨
